Introduction to Training Requests

HRplus provides several ways to create training requests to meet the specific needs of employees and the organization. These requests are designed to ensure employees receive the necessary training to fill competency gaps, align with their new roles, or improve performance.

HR staff can generate training requests using gap analysis tools available in HRplus. For instance:

• Gap Analysis by Job: HR can create training requests for all employees in a specific job who are missing required qualifications or competencies.
• Gap Analysis by Employee: HR can focus on individual employees to identify and request training for any missing qualifications or competencies.

When an employee is onboarded into a new position, HRplus automatically generates training requests based on the training courses linked to and required for that position. Additionally, HR staff have the flexibility to manually initiate training requests for any employee or invite employees to request training for specific courses.

Managers also play a critical role in initiating training requests:

• Through Manager Self-Service: Managers can request training directly via the portal.
• Following an Employee Appraisal: Managers can recommend training courses based on appraisal outcomes to address performance or development needs.

This chapter will guide you through the steps to create and manage training requests in HRplus, using these various options to support employee development and organizational success.
